Society, the people's forum Where they learn about the rules and Meet each other, understand the game That they play every moment They each introduce themselves As one who abides by the social law And convene in larger numbers With those who are very much the same
They chit and chat and shoot the **** They liff and laugh and moot on it But what of those who aren't a part of it? Simply because they just don't fit? This is learned at a young age, From our childhoods, life's book's first page Rippling, growing, til' it reaches a stage Until you're all alone, trapped in your head's cage
And God can't play the shepherd to the sheep Can't bring you back to the flock You're tired, worn, can't breathe or sleep You age faster than the clock The paranoia inside your mind grows strong You're anti-social, not after long Sideways thinking, upside down A kingdom of one, you bear the crown
Psychotic sins and torture played Thanatos and Eros, pleasure forbidden More real to oneself, to the others, one fades And appeals to oneself to make it all forgiven In the social circus, in your own ring Universes you ponder, death songs you sing You recluse your mind, lost without intent to be found For solitary freedom bests being amongst company, bound.
